sporter- how to change logo to full width flash

Re: Sporter template

I am trying to install a full width flash top in replacement of the logo, but could not find location where to add the code. Can someone, please, give me a guid?

Thanks

should be in the back end under TEMPLATE

[center][/center]

the logo is a png file located in images under templates.

css file is templates.css under templates/css/

Never mind, thank you anyway. I know where the logo file is but it is a png file; the question was how to change that to swf.

based upon my my recent experience with installing Statcounter code into the Sporter template, I would look at the inside -templates/gk_sporter/layouts and insert your flash code in the default.php file. Do make a backup copy of this file then try trial and error to insert the flash. I went to programming school to learn this technique....NOT.

Thank you! I did get it to work that way in the template but when I used the same in the quickstart, it came out empty space. I am trying to figure that out why. Maybe it is fonflicting with one of the mudules.

Have a look at this page to see the editing I have done.

sorry, it should be:

try to reduce your template width about 15-30 pixels so it is same width as flash...or conversely, make your flash a little wider..

Change your flash code to this one:

Code: Select all

<object height="150" width="1002" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"><param value="/eprpd/eprp.swf" name="movie"><param value="high" name="quality"><param value="transparent" name="wmode"><embed height="150" width="1002"src="/eprpd/eprp.swf" quality="high" wmode="transparent" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></object>
